I understand and agree with your point, however, why can’t the court simply order him to simply release his birth cirtificate, and his school records?
Courts just can’t give orders on a whim.
There has to be a cause or controversy first.
For the millionth time, birthers keep asking the courts to do things that the courts simply cannot do.
Courts in our federal system do not have any general supervisory power over other branches of government. They can not order discovery for its own sake; they can only order discovery if that is necessary to obtain evidence for use in a real lawsuit. here, the courts have held that they have no jurisdiction to remove a sitting President; only Congress can do that. So the courts therefore cannot order O to release any records; there is no pending lawsuit to which those records would be relevant. If Congress decides to impeach O, they can subpoena his birth records.
